We asked him how he felt after the win and he told us: “Feeling really good, very lucky and happy, everything went well during the race, just as I expected.” Thank goodness , I had my best result at my first final table here. This is the second year for me to come to Las Vegas, and I am looking forward to this month’s event, especially the highlight of our struggle for this dream. I have made a lot of preparations and hope to continue to achieve results!
Emanuel will be competing in the WSOP 2023 10K Main Event where he will qualify online for only $125.
